    Have had this for a short while now. Other than the fact that it runs VERY hot, and a few minor issues, I have been satisfied with the purchase and price that I bought it at. I can heartily recommend this Receiver (especially if you can find it on sale) as an "Entry level"/budget receiver.

      Hi GrandMaColleen,

      Thanks for sharing your experience so far with your STR-DH590 5.2Ch AV Receiver. Choosing this AV Receiver will definitely be worth it. We're delighted to hear you are enjoying the outstanding sound quality of this receiver. We apologize that the unit gets heat so much. The audio system generates heat (even at low volume) due to circuit processing, and the area around the heat radiation holes on the top or back can become hot. The System may become even hotter depending on usage. To make sure heat is radiated efficiently, check the following:

      • Don't put the unit in a rack
      • Don't close or cover the heat radiation holes on the back or side of the unit
      • Keep the unit at least 10 centimeters (3.94 inches) away from any wall or other objects

      At Sony we strive to put forward the best possible products for our customers. Thank you so much for your purchase and for choosing Sony! -Jess Sony_US

    I used this for a 5.1 set up for my gaming pc and I am extremely happy with the unit for the price plenty of power. The only problem ive had with it is it gets hot when really pushing it playing music for a long time I just blow a fan across it and it stays nice and cool. When using it for gaming it doesnt get hot at all.

    Purchased to upgrade when I got a new 4K TV. Integrates almost seamlessly with my Samsung TV, as if they were one device. With a subwoofer and decent speakers it makes the home theatre rock.
